SPRM arah Azeez, ahli keluarga isytihar harta

Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) has served a notice to former Housing Development Fund Corporation (TH) chairman Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim and his family members, including children, to declare their assets. Abdul Halim Aman, the Director of Public Prosecutions for SPRM, stated that the notice was delivered to Azeez and his closest relatives according to the applicable law.

The deadline for them to provide a declaration of their assets is one month. If this time is insufficient, the authorities will provide further extensions based on the circumstances, according to a media briefing in Kuala Lumpur. On September 9, Azeez admitted his guilt in the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court for using his position to secure a position as the chairman of Putrajaya Perdana Berhad and convincing TH members to approve an investment proposal of RM193.5 million in the company.

Prior to this, Azeez was also arrested for assisting an investigation related to TH donations under Section 420 of the Penal Code, before being released after the police officer's request to continue the investigation was denied by the court. This action is part of the follow-up to the findings of the Royal Malaysian Police (RCI) report on the management and operation of TH, with Halim stating that as of yesterday, six individuals were charged with eight separate cases under investigation.

However, he noted that SPRM's investigation is not yet complete, as there are still five cases ongoing and not yet concluded.
